Museum of Mormon History of the Americas

A private Provo museum, now called the Museum of Mormon Mexican History, on the history of the Latter-day Saint church in Mexico; it is not affiliated with the church. Exhibits cover the 1880s colonies in northern Mexico and the flight to El Paso during the Revolution, the first Spanish translations of the Book of Mormon, and Mexican newspaper coverage of the church. Entry is free with donations welcome, and texts are in English and Spanish.
